Norrbotten Wing (F 21)

The Wing’s main task is to create rapid response units, with combat aircraft and personnel that are permanently mission-ready in Sweden or overseas; and to monitor and protect Swedish airspace, (with the Blekinge Wing and the Air Combat Training School). The Wing includes two divisions equipped with Sweden’s JAS 39 Gripen fighter aircraft.
